Dr. Perrotti was amazing to work with. I would highly recommend him to anyone, in a heart beat. Very welcoming staff, in a comforting office. He makes you feel like family. Dr. Perrotti makes you feel important and follows up with you, to make sure you’re happy with your procedure. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor or experiance.
Amazing. I had calf, ankle, knee liposuction in July 2018. I already wrote a long review a few weeks ago. Maybe because I posted the site to my blog. I have been keeping a blog about the experience and healing with photos. Updated on 2 Sep 2018: If it's allowed on this site, I have been keeping a blog about my experience, some pointers on compression garments, keeping legs elevated etc. I had the procedure done in July 2018. Recovery has not been painful. And I actually like my compression garments. It's only been a little over a month but I definitely have an ankle now whereas before, my leg went straight down from knee to foot without even curving. https://thecalflady.home.blog
Dr. Perrotti is one of the most honest plastic surgeons in NYC. He will not perform any procedure just to make money. He truly cares about his patience and their needs. I have been a patience of his for the past 12 years. I highly recommend for any/all of your plastic surgery needs. And Jennifer who is Dr. Perrotti assistant /manager is also great to deal with. They are just really nice people. They make you feel at home. They aren't pretentious, which in their business you come across that a lot. Feel free to email me, I have had work done and would be more than happy to help and answers any questions. Oh, and did I mention, his work is AMAZING!! You look so natural. I give him 5 stars.
I lost 40 pounds. As a consequence, my face "fell" and deep nasolabial folds and bags under the eyes appeared. I hated the way I looked. I spoke with my Dermatologist, saw a plastic surgeon and called another. Was not convinced. Someone highly recommended Dr. John Perrotti. The recommendation was right on target. Not only is he a consumated professional but is also a great human being. Her applied Botox on my forehead for deep wrinkles and injected radiesse filler on my nasolabial folds. I was delighted with the end result. Further, he went out of his way to accommodate my financial circumstances, took the time to listen and answered all my questions in terms I could understand. Further, he has a great sense of humor and it was a pleasure to deal with him. His office administrator, Jennifer is a joy to deal with and was most helpful during the entire process.
Dr. Perrotti performed eyelid surgery on me this summer. Not only is he very skilled but he also is very caring and patient. He answered all my questions and gave me all the information I needed to understand what would be happening and to enable me to plan for my recovery, etc. When I called his office with questions or concerns, he or his office manager would get back to me immediately. I would highly recommend him to others.
I work in the fitness industry and have a hobby of bellydance performance. No amount of exercise was fixing the excess skin on my low belly after giving birth to my 8lb., 2oz. son some 25 plus years earlier. Whenever I performed I restricted certain movements to avoid the unsightly wrinkling of the skin on my lower belly. I wanted to improve my appearance, but moreover, to have more freedom of expression in my performance, which was limited by my self-consciousness. After much back in forth in my mind, I scheduled a consultation with John Perrotti, M.D.. His surgical coordinator Jennifer, was friendly and professional and scheduled me at a time with minimal contact with other patients. Dr. Perrotti met with me and showed positive enthusiasm for the results I could expect. I was at the correct weight, healthy and I had tried all other means to try to resolve the situation on my own. He responded amicably to all my concerns, was informative and reassuring. We scheduled the procedure within a few week of the consultation. Needless to say, it has been some years since my procedure and I am still thrilled. I enjoyed the freedom of expression and confidence that this simple procedure provided. I have since referred a multitude of friends to Dr. Perrotti's practice, all of whom have also shared his name to others. He is sweet, humble, knowledgable, accommodating and comforting. His professionalism is unsurpassed.
Was in my early 50's and really needed to enhance my lids. I had a seamless experience in hospital with a highly competent, easily approachable plastic surgeon. I received outstanding post operative care and love my results...I would and have recommended this surgeon to friends and family considering this procedure and other types of lifts. I am also a healthcare professional and work in a new york city hospital for many years...
The removal I had was a benign cyst, which had continued to grow a little and was frightening me. Dr. Perrotti assured me he could remove it so it wouldn't come back. He did, and it hasn't. He felt it was benign, and turned out it was. It was his reassuring and gentle manner that got me through it. His expertise and fine attention to detail resulted in a pleasant and successful experience.
I met with Dr. Perrotti at his surgery facility. He mapped out my eye area for surgery and answered questions I had about the procedure. He placed all my concerns to rest before I was wheeled into the operating room. His entire staff was professional and attentive right down to the anesthesiologist. The surgery started on time and was completed in the amount of time quoted. The recuperation period was better than expected and the results were astounding! Need I say more?
I have always struggled with my weight and been self conscious about my hips/butt/backside. Regardless of how much weight I lost and how hard I worked exercising to eliminate the unwanted excess fat in that area, it stayed with me like a shadow. I finally got the nerve to do something about it after a friend used Dr.Perrotti for liposuction. He was great. He always made me feel comfortable and took the time to hear me, and to explain everything every step of the way. I am beyond thrilled with the results and finally feel like a weight has been lifted (pun intended)...I don't feel self-conscious anymore. Thank you isn't enough.
Liposuction is the gold standard for treatment of large calves and ankles and generally provides excellent results. Based on your photos you appear to be a good candidate for liposuction which would also be determined upon exam. Calf and Ankle liposuction is not the most common liposuction done, such as that of the abdomen and/or waist area, and many plastic surgeons do not have the training and experience and they do not perform this procedure. It is most important to find a place and a surgeon with the training and experience to help you get the results that you desire. Improvement of the calves and ankles can be dramatic after liposuction in carefully selected patients, and in experienced hands. Patients that have had liposuction of the calves/ankles/knees are some of my happiest. One of my patients even started a blog, The Calf Lady, all about her calf liposuction experience with us.

It depends on where you are having liposuction. Liposuction of the body (abdomen, hips, flanks) will have a difference recovery period than liposuction of the thighs or calves/ankles. As a flight attendant you must be on your feet and more active than someone who has a less mobile (like a desk job) work environment. Also, some liposuction can be done under local anesthesia, versus general anesthesia, which can also affect your recovery time.
For my calf/ankle lipo patients they usually wear the compression socks for about 3 weeks, then can go to a secondary type garment. It is between you and your doctor to decide how long to wear the compression garments, based on your recovery progress. However, with my patients, at 6 months you may still have some swelling, but do not have to wear the garments.
The abdomen can be treated with full or limited tummy-tucks. Limited surgery can have a smaller scar or be confined to just the lower abdomen. These terms can mean different things. They may relate to the size of the incision and/or the areas of the abdomen that will be treated. Liposuction is often added to tummy tuck, but also can performed alone to treat the abdomen. Best to see a surgeon board certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery (ABPS) that has experience in treating the abdomen with different abdominoplasty techniques and liposuction.
